You are an idiot who doesnt know what they are talking about. Allow me to set your tiny, warped and delusional teabagging wingnut mind straight:
1. Sexist and misogynistic response, but typical of the right's war against women. Also, factories left the US because of low labor costs overseas, not because of "BS labor laws"...only a moron would say such stupid things.
2. If we left it up to the teabagging wingnuts, all we would do is "drill baby drill" instead of developing new, alternative energies. We have to start now, because fossil fuels are a finite resource (you will probably need to look up the word "finite" because right wingers dont seem to understand what it means)
3. Let me explain to you about the minimum wage because the teabagging right doesnt seem to understand simple economic reality. You see, people with families who make minimum wage cant afford to eat at KFC (and why did you pick KFC to make your point? Because you are a racist bigot who thinks all people who earn minimum wage are black and like fried chicken? Nice stereotyping there. The dry cleaners called and your white hood and robe are all clean and ready for the cross burning tonight). Its more like rice and beans and top ramen for them. However, if you raised the minimum wage they could afford some KFC and the increased demand created by the extra money they would be spending would increase profits and create jobs because companies would need more employees to keep up with demand. Its Econ 101, but you clearly never went to college.http://www.businessinsider.com/c/52ebc279eab8eac9572368f7Vintage VickiFri, 31 Jan 2014 10:34:17 -0500http://www.businessinsider.com/c/52ebc279eab8eac9572368f7
You do recall the Contract with America that Gingrich wrote and he got Clinton to sign? Can you imagine Obama signing anything that reduces spending and cuts welfare? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAhttp://www.businessinsider.com/c/52ebc18c6da811167e22d1e7Vintage VickiFri, 31 Jan 2014 10:30:20 -0500http://www.businessinsider.com/c/52ebc18c6da811167e22d1e7
We hate cronyism and bailouts. We believe in the individual and SMALL federal government. When TARP was approved we were pissed. We don't care about skin color....remember I said we believe in the INDIVIDUAL. We don't play identity politics. But go ahead and keep playing the race card. Good luck with that. You see what happened to MSNBC yesterday when they tried it again. ROFL.http://www.businessinsider.com/c/52ea846aeab8eaa24e631eecKenneth William GriffithThu, 30 Jan 2014 11:57:14 -0500http://www.businessinsider.com/c/52ea846aeab8eaa24e631eec
The stateof the Union Address needed an apology to the American people for the lies spoken previously to the public........It would have been justified to call it treasonious if the president had been under oath. As it was it helped him get elected by causing his supporters to believe the OBAMA CARE would be a benefit---instead it has been the worst program a president has ever promoted.http://www.businessinsider.com/c/52e9e67f69bedd0008e84e7dCapitalismThu, 30 Jan 2014 00:43:27 -0500http://www.businessinsider.com/c/52e9e67f69bedd0008e84e7d
1. Do they track the hours worked by each woman & man? Can you blame a company for favoring a man who puts in 60 hours a week over a woman who clocks out at 4 pm to pickup her kids from daycare? We're not socialists.. In an ideal world, we can do whatever the hell we want and be financially independent but that's how the system works sometimes. There's a reason why factories left America. B.S. labor laws for the uneducated. Now they smoke crack pipes or collect unemployment. Should've been grateful and worked hard instead of pressing for more union benefits.
2. I don't think Obama can take credit for this. Trying to piggyback off the efforts of others. I wonder if SFC Corey Remsburg realizes how much Obama's been using him.
3. This will help the poor go from a 2 piece meal at kfc to a 3 piece meal.. Big whoop. (Although I'm personally a big fan of KFC and their genetically mutated chickens.)
No doubt the most charismatic president since Kennedy and a master bullshitter. It's funny how the American people don't question anything when the President makes it seem like its "for the people" or the "average citizen." As if they have any say in what happens. What a load of crap.http://www.businessinsider.com/c/52e97619ecad046356e84e7fthedaltonWed, 29 Jan 2014 16:43:53 -0500http://www.businessinsider.com/c/52e97619ecad046356e84e7f

Any clue why we pumped a trillion dollars into our economy in 2009? When the sustained policy of deregulation failed in such a spectacular manner in 2008, we knew from the Great Depression, you keep the money supply fluid. You don't let banks fold, automakers leave the country or any of the other disasters that his us in the 30's.
BTW, we've heard all the dim rationalizations that don't include the repeal of Glass Stegall, so please don't bore us with drivel.http://www.businessinsider.com/c/52e96b856da81135596a4c97SixMillion DollarManWed, 29 Jan 2014 15:58:45 -0500http://www.businessinsider.com/c/52e96b856da81135596a4c97
Top 3 thoughts from last night...
1. Today, women make up about half our workforce. But they still make 77 cents for every dollar a man earns. That is wrong, and in 2014, it’s an embarrassment. A woman deserves equal pay for equal work. She deserves to have a baby without sacrificing her job. A mother deserves a day off to care for a sick child or sick parent without running into hardship – and you know what, a father does, too. It’s time to do away with workplace policies that belong in a “Mad Men” episode.
2. And when our children’s children look us in the eye and ask if we did all we could to leave them a safer, more stable world, with new sources of energy, I want us to be able to say yes, we did.
3. Of course, to reach millions more, Congress needs to get on board. Today, the federal minimum wage is worth about twenty percent less than it was when Ronald Reagan first stood here. Tom Harkin and George Miller have a bill to fix that by lifting the minimum wage to $10.10. This will help families. It will give businesses customers with more money to spend. It doesn’t involve any new bureaucratic program. So join the rest of the country. Say yes. Give America a raise.http://www.businessinsider.com/c/52e968716da81122476a4c98atlantarunnerWed, 29 Jan 2014 15:45:37 -0500http://www.businessinsider.com/c/52e968716da81122476a4c98

Love the go-around! Great entertainment!
But it doesn't matter.
Bush added to it. Obama piled it on.
What matters is that we're 17.3 trillion in the hole (not counting unfunded liabilities) and growing. www.usdebtclock.org
Where is the plan to cut the debt? We need to cut a trillion dollars from the deficit EVERY year for 20 years just to get back to zero.
Let's stop this bickering and get down to it, because otherwise, I'm betting we're going belly-up and that will be game-ending.

Agree in part...but it's not over if people would vote. 30 million people who would demographically identify as conservative didn't vote in the last election so we got an anti-american racist elected by a bunch of people living in their parents basements who get their news from "The Daily Show." We need a leader, not some politician. If we protected our industries like some of the Asian economies did when they were rising (and the hell with China's muling and whining over it, our military is still bigger for the time being), adopt agressive policies to rebuild industries (start with a corporate tax rate of 5-10% for companies who add jobs), quit giving "minimum wages" to people who have taken no additional steps to earn it ($15 an hour or a peanut thrower in a stadium who is part time and seasonal? Are you kidding?), tell Iran and North Korea to shut down their nuke missile programs or we'll assassinate their leaders, open the Keystone pipeline and become the world's #1 oil exporter (we have the oil to do this) we could turn it around. Otherwise...completely agree with you.http://www.businessinsider.com/c/52e94e726da811b5546a4c9dWho controls government purse?Wed, 29 Jan 2014 13:54:42 -0500http://www.businessinsider.com/c/52e94e726da811b5546a4c9d
"Your Saint Bush proposed a record $3.1 Trillion budget that year. Did the dev...er...democrats make him do that?"
So proposing a budget means it is passed? The Democrats controlled the House & Senate in 2007 & approved all spending for FY2008. Bush proposed budget for 2009 was only a 3% increase over 2008.
But Congress only approved 3 of 12 appropriations bills for FY2009 for Bush to sign before Oct 1, 2009, but Bush only signed one of them because he did not sign the proposed 2009 budget, thus it was never law.
Status with links for all appropriations for FY 2009: <a href="http://thomas.loc.gov/home/approp/app09.html" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" >http://thomas.loc.gov/home/approp/app09.html</a>
Beginning with a CR that Bush signed in Sept 30, 2008 for continued spending "at the current rate" and expiring on March 6, 2009. (<a href="http://www.aip.org/fyi/2008/095.html" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" >http://www.aip.org/fyi/2008/095.html</a>).
On March 6, 2009, President Obama signed a CR to extend funding through March 11, 2009 (<a href="http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/bdquery/z?d111:HJ00038:@@@L&summ2=m&" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" >http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/bdquery/z?d111:HJ00038:@@@L&summ2=m&</a>)
On March 11, 2009, President Obama signed the remainder of the FY 2009 budget (aka FY 2009 Omnibus Spending Bill)
Obama also approved:
2/17/2009: American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (aka the "stimulus bill")
6/24/2009: FY2009 Supplemental Defense-Int'l Affairs-Flu
8/7/2009: FY2009 Supplemental "Cash for Clunkers"
You keep acting like I'm defending all things Bush. I'm not as I've stated "... $626B deficit. Still bad, ..." while you ignore that we went from not good or even bad to even worse as you keep trying to hang this all on Bush. You want to believe that, go right ahead and ignore the hand that the Democrat controlled House & Senate (who control the spending) had in federal spending in the final 2 years of Bush's term.
Leadership under Obama: Blame Bush, do nothing to fix any current problems, introduce more problems to make matters worse, deny any responsibility after being in charge for over 5 years.http://www.businessinsider.com/c/52e94cd1eab8eaf34133b5e6JobsWed, 29 Jan 2014 13:47:45 -0500http://www.businessinsider.com/c/52e94cd1eab8eaf34133b5e6
The main reason I watched the address is I am looking for a light at the end of the tunnel of unemployment. My unemployment compensation has ended. I am living on the grace of family and friends. Meaning I have no money and carry a huge debt load. This started in 2009 and I never foresaw applying for food stamps and welfare as I am now. I am educated, highly skilled and my only desire is to WORK! I am 58 years old and a woman. This may have something to do with it although I live in one of the most prosperous and innovative states in the country. Yes a job I really do want a place to go each day to use my capabilities and add to the prosperity of the US.http://www.businessinsider.com/c/52e94cc06bb3f7204b33b5deAssclownWed, 29 Jan 2014 13:47:28 -0500http://www.businessinsider.com/c/52e94cc06bb3f7204b33b5de

"I keep saying that the DEMOCRAT CONTROLLED HOUSE AND SENATE PASSED THOSE SPENDING BILLS, especially in 2009."
Your Saint Bush proposed a record $3.1 Trillion budget that year. Did the dev...er...democrats make him do that?
Bush was the first President in history to propose a $2 Trillion budget in 2002, and the first President in history to propose a $3 Trillion budget in 2008 (and he did the same in 2009).
But all that's okay if you are Republican.http://www.businessinsider.com/c/52e935d169bedd7b5d5b3f96Who controls government purse?Wed, 29 Jan 2014 12:09:37 -0500http://www.businessinsider.com/c/52e935d169bedd7b5d5b3f96
"3) You're in deep denial that 2009 was Bush's deficit. Reality, and Bruce Bartlett, and CATO all agree with me, not you.
Don’t Blame Obama for Bush’s 2009 Deficit"
Nice attempt at diversion to keep bringing up Reagan. I guess you're not reading the whole point of my title and initial responses. You say it's Bush's deficit.
I keep saying that the DEMOCRAT CONTROLLED HOUSE AND SENATE PASSED THOSE SPENDING BILLS, especially in 2009. History has a clear record that when Republicans have a far better record of controlling spending than democrats do. That's even in spite of the fact that too many Republicans were spending too much money in the 2000s.
Who controls the government purse? CONGRESS.http://www.businessinsider.com/c/52e93376eab8ea6c6933b5deRosettaStonedWed, 29 Jan 2014 11:59:34 -0500http://www.businessinsider.com/c/52e93376eab8ea6c6933b5de
Those year over year reductions are greater than Reagan (who tripled the national debt and didn't reduce year over year outlays even once) and Bush II (who doubled the national debt and didn't reduce year over year outlays even once).
"ignore that nice $787B stimulus bill which was 100% deficit spending"
1) 1/3 of that was tax cuts. Are conmen like you considering tax cuts to be spending now that it's convenient politically?
2) The stimulus wasn't all spent in one year, in fact only $253 billion was allocated for FY 2009.
3) You're in deep denial that 2009 was Bush's deficit. Reality, and Bruce Bartlett, and CATO all agree with me, not you.
Don’t Blame Obama for Bush’s 2009 Deficit
The 2009 fiscal year began October 1, 2008, nearly four months before Obama took office. The budget for the entire fiscal year was largely set in place while Bush was in the White House. - <a href="http://www.cato.org/blog/dont-blame-obama-bushs-2009-deficit" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" >http://www.cato.org/blog/dont-blame-obama-bushs-2009-deficit</a>

"Bush had the worst deficit on record in 2009 - which you misattribute to Obama! You're either very stupid or a liar. Probably both."
Again, American Recovery & Reinvestment Act passed in February 2009 with a $787B deficit spending that Bush nor the Republicans had nothing to do with and accounted on the 2009 budget.
2009: $1,413B (total deficit) - $787B (stimulus bill) = $626B deficit. Still bad, but you're lying if you say that was because of Bush and the DEMOCRAT HOUSE AND SENATE WHO CONTROL ALL SPENDING BILLS!!!http://www.businessinsider.com/c/52e92e3e6bb3f7005833b5e0Who controls government purse?Wed, 29 Jan 2014 11:37:18 -0500http://www.businessinsider.com/c/52e92e3e6bb3f7005833b5e0
"1) Obama is the first President since Eisenhower to reduce federal outlays year over year, and he did it twice, in 2010 (when Republicans controlled nothing) and 2012."
- congratulations, from 2009 $3.518 trillion to 2010 $3.457 trillion, an amazing $60B which was followed by 2011's increase of $140B to $3.603 trillion. An amazing accomplishment.
"2)." ... as I said, they love to blame Bush. "fiscal year 2009, which began on Oct. 1, 2008, regardless of who became president on Jan. 20, 2009"
- Yeah, ignore that nice $787B stimulus bill which was 100% deficit spending since it was after the 2009 budget passed in the summer of 2008 (American Recovery and Reinvestment Act) that was passed in February 2009 under democrat House, democrat Senate, & democrat President which counted on the 2009 budget which was not signed by Bush.

The president leading us is off his meds. No one can talk to him in his inner circle. The sites you mention are secondary news feeds that supply information to the folks that don't have any money or any skin in the game. The white noise you speak of is the collective misunderstanding of how to run a business or a country. Obama has no experience and no "brain trust" and we have no leader to respect or trust. Defending the indefensible is the definition of insanity. You get the same result over and over.

"2009 - $1,412,688 (that's $1.4 TRILLION deficit, or about ONE TRILLION more than Bush's worst deficit)"
You idiot. 2009 was Bush's worst deficit. Fiscal Year 2009 began in September 2008 - 2 months before Obama was even elected!http://www.businessinsider.com/c/52e92b4a6bb3f7d74f33b5deWho controls government purse?Wed, 29 Jan 2014 11:24:42 -0500http://www.businessinsider.com/c/52e92b4a6bb3f7d74f33b5de
Look at the numbers. Spending under Bush's term was bad, no doubt, but 1992 was a $290B deficit and Bush 43 only had 3 years higher than that.
So yeah, that is relatively "under control" compared to the $1.X TRILLION deficits we've had for the last several years.http://www.businessinsider.com/c/52e92b0069bedd60355b3f95RosettaStonedWed, 29 Jan 2014 11:23:28 -0500http://www.businessinsider.com/c/52e92b0069bedd60355b3f95
"Obama had a democrat House & Senate and TRILLION dollar deficits until Republican controlled House has been trying to bring deficit spending down"
1) Obama is the first President since Eisenhower to reduce federal outlays year over year, and he did it twice, in 2010 (when Republicans controlled nothing) and 2012.
2) Those trillion dollar deficits were inherited from Bush, but don't take my word for it. Here's Reagan economic advisor - one of the fathers of supply-side/voodoo economics - Bruce Bartlett. - "What’s important to see is that the federal government was going to run the largest deficit since World War II in fiscal year 2009, which began on Oct. 1, 2008, regardless of who became president on Jan. 20, 2009. It was baked in the cake by policies put in place by the Bush administration" - <a href="http://economix.blogs.nytimes.com/2013/12/24/the-budget-deficit-as-seen-from-2009/?_php=true&_type=blogs&_r=0" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" >http://economix.blogs.nytimes.com/2013/12/24/the-budget-deficit-as-seen-from-2009/?_php=true&_type=blogs&_r=0</a>http://www.businessinsider.com/c/52e929cfeab8ead64a33b5dcRosettaStonedWed, 29 Jan 2014 11:18:23 -0500http://www.businessinsider.com/c/52e929cfeab8ead64a33b5dc

As the republican and bush bashing rages forward on this site, other sites like politico, newsmax, etc are covering a story about Obama's speech being eerily similar to bush,s 2007 sotu. Partisanship without direction or historical understanding is just white noise.http://www.businessinsider.com/c/52e9248e69beddbd1a5b3f99Who controls government purse?Wed, 29 Jan 2014 10:55:58 -0500http://www.businessinsider.com/c/52e9248e69beddbd1a5b3f99
So much hate in you.
Feel free to reference the White House's own numbers and find that trillion dollars (hint: the table lists both on-budget & off-budget items): Table 1.1—Summary of Receipts, Outlays, and Surpluses or Deficits (-): 1789–2018 - <a href="http://www.whitehouse.gov/omb/budget/historicals" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" >http://www.whitehouse.gov/omb/budget/historicals</a>
Year - Total Deficit/Surplus (in $millions):
2000 - $236,241 (surplus)
2001 - $128,236 (surplus)
2002 - $157,758 (all following are deficits)
2003 - $377,585
2004 - $412,727
2005 - $318,346
2006 - $248,181
2007 - $160,701
2008 - $458,553
2009 - $1,412,688 (that's $1.4 TRILLION deficit, or about ONE TRILLION more than Bush's worst deficit)
2010 - $1,294,373
2011 - $1,299,593
2012 - $1,086,963
Unless you're saying that the current White House is also hiding Bush's "hidden war deficits" which is highly unlikely since we know the current administration has no problem saying "not my fault, it's Bush's fault".
Go ahead "assclown", show me some facts.http://www.businessinsider.com/c/52e9245d6bb3f75e3b33b5e0Alligator BreathWed, 29 Jan 2014 10:55:09 -0500http://www.businessinsider.com/c/52e9245d6bb3f75e3b33b5e0

Thanks for the great work on this 'article.' Kudos for just using something someone else said about something someone said (or didn't say).

Hey this is the President that was elected in 2008 on "Hope and Change". It hurts to have been lied to and it helps nothing to keep dragging the past in to the present. Obama has had 6 years and we have gotten worse not better.http://www.businessinsider.com/c/52e91a236da811c96c6a4c9a1usernameWed, 29 Jan 2014 10:11:31 -0500http://www.businessinsider.com/c/52e91a236da811c96c6a4c9a
POTUS is whiffing big time. In 2 more years our fragile United States will be irrevocably weakened - socially and financially.

Wow, did the president embarrass himself again last night. So, that is hope and change, huh? Can the liberals now admit this guy was promoted like a rock star without any qualifications? What a tiny, left-wing, has been. Again, he is irrelevant. Push him aside. Thank you very much. We'll fix it the correct way. No more, forced ideological pen stroke orders.http://www.businessinsider.com/c/52e9175869beddac625b3f9aPlatoWed, 29 Jan 2014 09:59:36 -0500http://www.businessinsider.com/c/52e9175869beddac625b3f9a

Barack Obama should hand up the job to Michelle. She wears the pants in the family anyway, and likes being CEO. He is the one who always apologizes to her when they have a dispute, no matter who is to blame (by her own testimony), and he clearly does not like being CEO. She would clearly make a great president. She even gives better speeches than he does.http://www.businessinsider.com/c/52e90c576da81193306a4c97Who controls government purse?Wed, 29 Jan 2014 09:12:39 -0500http://www.businessinsider.com/c/52e90c576da81193306a4c97
According to the U.S. Constitution: Article I, Section 9, Clause 7 (the Appropriations Clause) and Article I, Section 8, Clause 1 (the Taxing and Spending Clause).
-Reagan & Bush 41 had a democrat controlled House & Senate who approved all spending & increased the debt.
-Clinton had a Republican House & Senate who reduced deficit spending & created a surplus.
-Bush 43 had a Republican House & Senate & 9/11 and .com market crash yet still managed to keep deficit spending under reasonable control.
-Obama had a democrat House & Senate and TRILLION dollar deficits until Republican controlled House has been trying to bring deficit spending down.

More debt was fine for hypocrite Conmen when Reagan tripled it, and when Bush doubled it again.
It's okay if you are Republican.http://www.businessinsider.com/c/52e909c869bedde42c5b3fa5John McCallWed, 29 Jan 2014 09:01:44 -0500http://www.businessinsider.com/c/52e909c869bedde42c5b3fa5

The president just said F You China, Congress get out of bed with corporations and work to raise the minimum wage to $10.10 for American workers (Be prepared to pay $7 for a whopper), and Corporations need to give a raise to their employees before someone build a meth Lab in Arizona having more profit than Walmart in one month ( I hope to get one on the following days or...) , for health Care the Obamacare will be Accepted on Western Auto, cash your food stamps on your city pawnshop & for security we will play monopoly to negotiate with terrorist and move the Drone program to kinder garden. that is my POV of the speech.http://www.businessinsider.com/c/52e8ffbb6bb3f7cd2f33b5dfMike DdWed, 29 Jan 2014 08:18:51 -0500http://www.businessinsider.com/c/52e8ffbb6bb3f7cd2f33b5df

What's new to say when you're owned by Too Big To Jail Banks, Wall Street thugs, and a bloated military-industrial complex? "Yes We Can"? When your attorney general is a supine corporate doormat for your "contributors", what can you say, really ?
